I signed up yesterday..just went and checked... my membership has been approved...I'm just giddy....
Easily done. Nice web site.
Easily done. Nice web site. Looks like they have been busier than thought at the TNDP.
>-)
Heh,
Wheeee...
Let's see if this a place where Dems exchange ditto-head pleasantries, or if there's a real, party oriented debate to be found.
Wonder how long it will take before they boot me out...
okie dokie...
i signed up...la la la la la...now let's see if the TNDP can get its act together and start winning elections even here in lil ole RED East Tennessee. If they are smart they'll start listening to the folks from around here instead of just telling us what they think we want or need.

Hey, you.
Good to see you.
Happy Days Are Here Again
This was sooo easy!! Thanks for posting this web site. I look forward to becoming part of this blogging community.
Ok, daddy-o
Not only did I join, I graced them with an original blog piece in standard captainkona fashion.
My view of it?
Now since they seem to want to pre-screen blog posts (an act that is already unbecoming), we'll see if they allow mine.
If they do we have a serious TNDP that is ready and willing to change and go for the throat of the Republican party. If they don't, it's just more of the same squeamish, jelly-spine bullshit that the TNDP is famous for.
If the TNDP want's to get my vote and money and activism away from the Greens, they'll have to show me some backbone that's at least close to what the Green party has.
Otherwise I'll have no part of it.
